      1- Design of High-Efficiency Thermal Emitters for Thermophotovoltaic Systems • Conducted analytical and numerical analyses of a nonreciprocal emitter, achieving a groundbreaking 93.3% efficiency enhancement for a solar thermophotovoltaic system • Developed a theoretical model for an advanced nonreciprocal thermal emitter. This model uniquely enables the adjustment of the emitter's absorptivity and emissivity properties, significantly enhancing thermal efficiency by overcoming standard heat loss limitations2- Experimental Measurement of Emissivity and Reflectivity in Nonreciprocal Materials • Conducted experimental measurements of the reflectivity of Weyl Semimetals utilizing Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy and Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-vis) Spectrophotometry • Performed precise emissivity measurements of Weyl Semimetals and magneto-optical materials using an advanced Emissometry setup3- Optimization of Thermophotovoltaic System's Thermal Emitter through Machine Learning Algorithms • Implementation of a machine learning and quantum computing combined active learning algorithm to design a high performance selective emitter for high efficient TPV system • Developing a mixed-categorical Bayesian optimization (BO) approach for maximizing the contrast between absorptivity and emissivity for multilayer nonreciprocal thermal emitters Show less
